Answer:

y-5 = -6(x+3) OR y = -6x-13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use slope-intercept form to solve this problem.

Slope intercept form is the following:

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

x1 and y1 are given by the point in the problem.

x1 = -3, y1 = 5.

m is given by the equation in the problem. Lines that are parallel have the same slope. Thus,

m = -6.

If we plug these values into the equation for slope intercept form, we get the following:

y-5 = -6(x-(-3)) which becomes y-5 = -6(x+3)

This is an acceptable answer to the problem. However, point-slope form is also a way it can be written.

y-5 = -6x-18

y = -6x-13

siniylev [52]
Graph, as a dashed line, the linear function y = (-2/5)x + 1.  To do this:
1) Plot the y-intercept, which is (0,1)
2) With your pencil point on (0,1), move 5 spaces to the right and from there, move 2 spaces down.  Plot this new point, (5, -2).
3) Draw a straight, dashed line through (0,1) and (5, -2).

Because of the < sign, you must now shade the area under this dashed line.

This makes no sense can someone help me please

It just has to equal 90° so that they are parallel so 16x-6=90
16x=96 (add 6 to both sides)
x=6(divide by 16)

Answer:

11 games

Step-by-step explanation:

17+6=23

23/2=11.5

Victoria can play 11 games. You'd usually round up, but in this case you can't play half a game so she'll play 11 games and have one quarter leftover.
